Hi, the speech rate is very easy to set.
Simply do a numpad-0 and the letter 8 which should put you in layer 8.
Pressing the numpad-4 and numpad-6 keys will slow down and speed up the
speech rate.
Also the numpad-1 and numpad-3 keys will lower and increase the volume of
the speech.
Note, becareful to check the state of your numlock key as this all depends
if your numlock is on or off.
As far as setting volume gnome has a very speech friendly volume controle
located in the Gnome 2.4 main panel menu. It's location is a little
different in different Linux distros, but it is in the multimedia group with
the cd players etc...
If you are more interressted in setting volume from the command line there
is a nice program called aumix which will set your volume. For example:
aumix -v 100 100 -w 75 75 -m 0 0
Personally, I like the gnome volume controle better, but aumix is a pretty
nice commandline tool as well.

Hello, I got gnome and gnopernicus running. Now my problem is that the rate
of speech is way to fast, also how do I turn up the volume of my sound card
in console and in x? Thanks
